Pitcher 1609 has been designed already in 1953 before the Kimara-pitcher 1610 and a ball-cylinder pitcher 1621. After a couple of years in production, the pitcher was modified. Franck wanted to combine the pitcher and the stackable 2744 Kimara-glass, which he designed in 1953. Pitcher was modernized &#8211; so it took up less space in small apartments of the 1950s.
